Hurshtown Reservoir
March 18, 2018


Stockbridge Audubon's field trip to Hurshtown Reservoir attracted 13 birders on a fine day.  Our thanks to the Ft Wayne Parks Department, which, for over 20 years as allowed us in when the reservoir is ordinarily closed, and to Laura McCann of the department, who comes out on Sunday afternoons to open the gate for us.

We had good numbers of several species of ducks and other water birds on our circuit of the water.
